Initially, the host seemed very welcoming and attentive to requests and needs. That faded as needs increased. The heated pool reached near the temperature they said it would (80 degrees) only one day. They provided instructions for the heater to run continually in attempt to reach that temp but then the heater froze up and the temp dropped back down. We only used the pool one day of our stay. Prior to the stay, we were told we may be able to get a later check out if the unit was not booked. That morning we made the request (some of our party had flight issues, they had small children, and could not fly out until 8pm) - we were only asking for an hour or two but could not get a response from the host or anyone at the company - the same happened when the pool quit heating - NO RESPONSE. The unit is an older house. There are loose flooring tiles, dirty windows, cheaply made furnishings (don't try to use the bedroom drawers - they don't open properly, fall off track, and stick). The bedroom mirrors are limited and cheaply made with skewed reflections. The towels provided are very small. Be VERY careful with the linens. We were charged for staining of linens - theses were stains that in a normal household may occur and can typically be treated and removed with proper washing. Regardless, we paid them for the "stained" wash clothes, sheets, and such. Never, have we had this happen before. They need a better laundry service. Positives: the back yard, shuffleboard, PacMan, family

We had an excellent stay with 3 families that included many kids. The room/bed situation is the perfect set up for multiple families. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The pool was sparkling clean and enjoyed by all. You’re a very short walk (straight shot) to the beach access and beach. The walk was easy even with multiple toddlers in tow. Communication was great and very easy and hosts even checked in to make sure everything was good. I would highly recommend this place.

We love IRB
The house was awesome. There was a total of 10 people and plenty of sleeping space for matter of fact there were beds that didn’t get used. The pool was wonderful clean. There were plenty of kids beach and pool toys a beach wagon and umbrellas. We couldn’t ask for anything better. And to top it off our flight left late and Alan I accommodated us for check out. This was our 2nd year staying in one of Alan’s houses and we’ll be back next year

Will book here again.
As described and great value for what you get. Great communication all the way through from the property manager. The pool and outside space was perfect for the end of the day. Renting the golf cart on the property was key as well.
It is a dog friendly place but does not appear that way. Very well taken care of and well supplied.

Great location
This house is in a great location. The beach is a 3 minute walk. Plenty of bars, restaurants, coffee shops and stores within walking distance. Quiet neighborhood that was great for bike riding or walking the dog. We didn’t have small kids but there was a playground just down the street. The pool was amazing and we spent most days poolside.

Amazing place!
This house is super cute and spacious. In a great location, super close walk to the beach and the neighborhood is adorable. We loved that we didn’t feel on top of each other. The kids especially loved the pool. We had an issue with the water heater the first day but Alan answered promptly and it was an easy fix. We definitely plan to stay again. Thanks!

Awesome Vacation!
This is an awesome spot to vacation at. Especially if you have a good bit of people going there. Pool was even better than we thought it was going to be. Good location having a straight shot to the beach. Neighborhood has a couple of playgrounds to choose from to take the little ones to. Hosts are great and will help you with anything that is any kind of confusing. Our overall experience here was absolutely amazing! Thank you guys for everything and I hope we can stay here again sometime.

Most was great
Had a few let downs but not major
1. Master water pressure at sink not good and cold was warm & if hot almost scolding
2. Master tub all scratched not impressed but doable
3. AC controls at thermostat were an issue
4. Not sure why hot tub part of pool not functional but it was advertised without. But would have been nice!! Lol
6. Lots of ants in pool/yard should be pest controlled better
7. Back yard could be maintained better and rear right side kinda run down looking. A small amount of TLC IN back yard would go a long way
As I said though overall experience and house were great for what we needed.

Tropical oasis
Our family of six had a wonderful, fun and relaxing week in this spacious beach home. The best part was coming back to the beautiful backyard pool after a day at the beach. House is in a very quiet area bordering a beautiful nature preserve. Alan was the best host, responding within minutes to any need. Kitchen was well-equipped and spacious; whole house was spotless and the housekeeper was able to accommodate my fragrance sensitivity. A few more niceties would make the place perfect— such as more comfortable pillows, more beach chairs, some beach towels and perhaps a few board games.
